Homemade Vegetarian Haggis Recipe

Burn's Night is here and in my house that means an excuse for a special dinner. I love punctuating the year by recognising all the 'special' days. It gives me a bit of inspiration to cook something different and have a bit of themed fun with the family.

So I have made homemade vegetarian haggis using an adaption of the Vegetarian Society's recipe from 2001 using lots of veggies, lentils, pulses and nuts to make a very delicious haggis without a single sheep's stomach in sight!! (It is all ready in the loaf tin to be cooked for tonight's dinner, so I've used photos from last year's haggis to illustrate this recipe.)

Serve with tatties and neeps!! We use Morrison's mashed carrot, swede and potato and then add some green veg like cabbage to the plate! Top with gravy for a delicious, warming, healthy meal. Here is last year's Burn's Night dinner!

I have to admit that your home made haggis looked a lot better than the bought variety that we had for dinner. Dad had indigestion all afternoon so I think, in future, I will take a leaf out of your book and make my own. Your dinner looks divine.

I made this veggie Haggis for the 3rd time this year for a Burns Night supper for my lot. It all gets eaten but has a mixed reaction, although my partner (who is Scottish) thinks it's great if lacking in black pepper! Next year I must remember to add some :D

About Me

I consider myself very blessed. I am happily married to my childhood sweetheart ... although the path to now has not been exactly linear! I have five amazing children,born in each of the reproductive decades of my life...my teens, 20's, 30's and 40's! I'm fortunate enough to be a stay at home mum and this stay at home status means I'm on hand 24/7 for all the dramas that befall the the clan. My eldest son who is thriving in the workplace and is a daddy to Ted and Callie (making me a proud Grandma!); my eldest daughter who is embarking on amazing new adventures in both her work life and personal life; my guitar playing university student daughter; my punk rock loving teenager and my wonderfully quirky little school boy provide plenty of entertainment to keep me busy. Combine that with my gadget obsessed, vinyl loving husband, and you have life "Inside the Wendy House!"
